BACKGROUND / ANALYSIS East Valley Water District (District) owns and operates two facilities that have the ability to provide public benefits for community events. The Headquarters and Sterling Natural Resource Center (SNRC) have a portion of the facility that includes public event space. The District evaluated the public benefit of renting the event space for public events and created a Facility Use Policy in 2014 with administrative guidelines and fees for the facilities. Following the recent opening of the SNRC and completion of emergency response enhancements in the Headquarters Board Room, staff reviewed the existing Facility Use Policy, and prepared recommendations for revisions. Utilizing District event space provides a benefit to the community and an affordable venue that has been widely utilized since the program implementation nearly eight years ago. The program was temporarily paused during the COVID-19 restrictions. Once reopening, the District has allowed limited events at the Headquarters and the SNRC. The District has seen a diverse interest in both venues and proposes to prioritize venue rentals and modify fees to recover costs. The policy modifications will allow staff to clearly communicate rental requirements, enhance use of space by community organizations and ensure the program is financially self-sustaining. In January 2022, the District updated fees for the Headquarters and added the SNRC to the Facility Use Policy. The Headquarters fee structure reflects a clear understanding of the resources needed to oversee private events. This includes staffing costs, table and chair purchases, room set up, event clean-up, and added wear and tear on the building. Given the primary purpose of the Headquarters facility is for public meetings, adjustments are proposed to the types of special events allowed at the facility. The SNRC has created an opportunity to partner with local government agencies and community-based organizations. Proposed revisions to the fee schedule reflect a better understanding of resources needed to manage the larger venue. Since this location has space that was intended for private use, a capital recovery cost for the meeting space Agenda Item #4a January 25, 20232 Meeting Date: January 25, 2023 Agenda Item #4a Discussion Item has been added to the flat rate for private events. This facility provides the unique ability to work with organizations and public agencies to provide consistent community programming that is not currently available in the community. These community-based organizations will benefit with an affordable venue and the added potential of increasingly dynamic activities. The recent opening of the SNRC community space provides and opportunity to host more events and reduce the programming of the Headquarters. The proposed policy administration will reserve the Headquarters for limited, smaller events, with a primary focus on District activities. Conversely, the SNRC was designed and constructed as a community resource, and is proposed to operate as a larger community event space in a park-like fashion with both passive and programmed activities.

This includes monitoring and sometimes creating bills and programs with both the Federal and State legislations. Each year, the California Legislature introduces thousands of new bills and regulations that could impact District operations and customers. Given this high volume of activity, it is important to establish clear priorities through a Legislative Platform. The Legislative Platform is updated with the start of each new legislative session, in this case 2023 and 2024. The Legislative Platform identifies different roles and responsibilities within the organization, including the Board of Directors (Board), General Manager/CEO, staff, and legislative advocates. It provides direction for activities that the District should consider supporting or opposing. Legislative activities require clear direction and concise perspectives to allow staff and advocates the ability to respond quickly to legislative actions. The Legislative Platform allows the Board to establish policy priorities, thus providing staff with a tool to assess which bills and regulations to engage, without the time limitations of individual Board actions. Staff may request the Board take a position on proposed legislative actions that are not covered in the Legislative Platform. Maintaining an effective advocacy program consists of trade association coalitions, legislative staff discussions, legislator engagement, and on-record positions. There are times where the District may not agree with the entire concept of a bill, but may be willing to engage to negotiate the elements of concern. Legislative advocacy includes being part of discussions where staff can share how a bill could positively or negatively impact District customers. This is especially important in areas where there could be substantial unintended consequences of proposed legislation. The District anticipates multiple matters of interest will be considered in the 2023-24 sessions. While it won’t become entirely clear until after the bill introduction deadline, Agenda Item #4b January 25, 20232 Meeting Date: January 25, 2023 Agenda Item #4b Discussion Item 6 3 7 low-income rate assistance programs, water conservation requirements, clean fleet mandates, and water quality standards are items of interest the District will be closely monitoring. Staff will provide periodic updates on the session activity and items of interest to the Board. AGENCY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES I - Implement Effective Solutions Through Visionary Leadership C.

THE DISTRICT STRIVES TO PROVIDE — Michael Moore, P.E., General Manager/CEO The East Valley Water District 2023-24 Legislative Platform summarizes the organizational policy position regarding legislative and regulatory matters of concern. The Governing Board provides direction through this Legislative Platform that allows for optimal engagement in the development and implementation of rules that impact the community. Maintaining this document allows for the timely response to issues identified as important and consistent with the District’s legislative priorities. Staff will seek the Board’s guidance on issues that are not addressed within the adopted Legislative Platform. The Legislative Platform reflects the priorities adopted by Board of Directors through the Five-Year Work Plan, annual budget, and other planning documents. It is designed to serve as a guide for East Valley Water District’s legislative advocacy efforts.

Legislative Advocate LEGISLATIVE & REGULATORY PLATFORM • Legislation and regulatory action that supports the successful construction of the Delta Conveyance, or successor project in a timely manner. • Policies and funding opportunities that facilitate the implementation of alternative energy elements at District facilities to offset operational needs and/ or provide supplemental electricity to the larger energy grid. • State legislation that focuses on technologically and economically feasible residential and commercial water use efficiency. • Federal and State development of bond or general fund-supported funding programs for water supply development, including new surface and groundwater storage, water quality, recycled water, and conservation-related programs and efficient, fair implementation of such programs. • Federal and State efforts to encourage Endangered Species Act implementing resource agencies to implement a more integrated and diversified approach to species recovery efforts. • Federal and State efforts that ease the path to development of recycled water resources. • Legislation that advocates mitigating operational costs to EVWD and/or its ratepayers, thereby enhancing water affordability. • Policies and funding opportunities that assist disadvantaged communities but do not undermine affordability for all ratepayers and Proposition 218. Consider Supporting • State legislation that seeks to limit or alter the authority and fiduciary role of the Board of Directors to manage the water and wastewater collection systems, impose unreasonable unfunded state mandated programs, or increase fees, property-related charges or taxes on District customers. • State legislation that would inappropriately assert the authority of the Legislature to alter or condition existing authority to construct, operate and maintain State Water Project facilities in order to convey water across the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. Additionally, those that would negatively impact voluntary agreements reached relating to this statewide effort. • State legislation that would hinder the exercise of existing District authority such as public contracts, procurement, rate and fee setting, financial administration, public records, and human resources. • State legislation that would result in the implementation of a requirement which is duplicative or inconsistent with current regulations. • Federal and State legislation and regulations that hinder the ability of the District to protect and secure critical infrastructure from cyber or physical threats and damages. • Federal and State legislation to establish Public Health Goals and Maximum Contaminant Levels outside of the procedures set forth in the Federal and California Safe Drinking Water Acts. • The expansion of water conservation and water use efficiency program mandates that unreasonably constrain the Board of Directors to design and implement restrictions at the local level. • State legislation that would establish a statewide or locally implemented fee or tax on water use. • Regulatory and legislative actions that would compromise the existing protections awarded to historical water rights. • Legislation that implements requirements based on developing technology and markets which lack a competitive bidding environment.
